FILINTA
AN OTTOMAN DETECTIVE STORY

WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO WATCH
ARE DETECTIVE STORIES

THAY HAVE NO RELATIONSHIP
TO ACTUAL PERSONS OR EVENTS.

THIS SHOW IS IN MEMORY OF THOSE
GLORIOUS MARTYRS OF

THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE, WHICH HAD
RULED JUSTLY OVER THE WORLD,

AND OF THE DESCENDANTS
OF THIS GREAT NATION

WHO LOST THEIR LIVES
IN THE PURSUIT OF JUSTICE.

FILINTA
AN OTTOMAN DETECTIVE STORY

I'm coming.

I'm coming, okay.



Oh my God.

Praise be to you!

My God!

Praise be to you!

Okay.

Are you the Bosnian Master Mirko?

Yes, mister.

Did you make this clock, Master?

You...

You're him.

Who?

Who?

Do you know me?

Yeah.



I know you.

You're him.

You look just like your father.

He had this clock made for you.

Master Mirko!

Master Mirko, please tell me
who am I for God's sake.

Master Mirko, breathe!

Tell me.

The clock man is dead, like you asked.

Master Mirko. Master Mirko's work.

What are you talking about?
Who is Master Mirko?

It's a flawless piece.

There are many things from my past
that I didn't take care of.

You win my favor with every passing day,
Azize.

Mustafa was there.

-And?
-And he survived.

Luck.

Luck.

He got away from your hands, huh?

If there's something else...

Yeah, when I came...

Yesterday night we...

He knew me.

He knew who I was.

Good heavens.

Things got really complicated.

Whoever these people are,
they're scared of your past, Mustafa.

25 YEARS AGO

Praise be to you!

Okay.

Okay.

Cadi Efendi,

we got information about the deceased.

He's a clock master that immigrated here
from Bosnia about 25 years ago.

He doesn't have any friends or relatives.

He's a poor man that lives alone.

We will enlighten our future

once we enlighten your past, Mustafa.

I was this dart's target.

I'll find who did this.

-Greetings.
-Greetings.

Is Eyup not here?

Eyup is not here

but who are you?

I'll check his room anyway.

Move...

Open the door. We'll talk.

I knocked on the door. You didn't hear?

Filinta Mustafa!

It's you? If I knew it was you,
I'd open the door myself.

Be my guest. Take a seat, Pasha.

Poison trader Eyup.

Find out what's on the tip.

-Anyone dead?
-Yeah.

Master Mirko!

-How did he die?
-He got it on his neck and he collapsed.

There were bubbles
coming out of his mouth.

Just like I thought.
This is hemlock poison.

Only this one kills in a fairly short
amount of time.

Did you sell this poison recently?

No way, my Pasha. I wouldn't do that.

I never got into that again after you
jailed me. I came to my senses.

I only make medication.
-Good boy.

So,

who makes this poison besides you, Eyup?

KARAKOY PORT

Where are the Padishah's guards?

We were told to get off the ship
after everyone else.

They were supposed to meet us.

There's something wrong with this.

My God.

These guys are the favorites
of the Padishah's troop of guardsmen.

How did this happen?

These aren't ordinary people, Hasan.

Ring.

The ring indicates that this guy is
Zemani Tribe's Sheikh.

The wound is deep in the middle.
It's shallow on the sides.

So, sir? What does that mean?

It's a dagger.

It's strange that

this dagger's owner killed five
specifically chosen guards by himself.

I thought such things
only happen in story books.

This is no story book, Hasan.

We're facing the most skilled murderer
I've ever seen in my life.

DOLMABAHCE PALACE

They slaughtered Sheikh Hamza.

He was one of our most loyal servants
in the Arabian cities.

That meeting was secret, my Sultan.

No one knew about it.

No one knew about it, huh?

No one knew about it, Grand Vizier Efendi.
What kind of secrecy is this?

What kind of security is this?

What are your commands, my Sultan?
Should we cancel the meeting?

No.

This meeting must go through
no matter the cost.

Come in.

My Sultan, Cadi Giyaseddin Efendi is here.

Let him in.

My Sultan.

Leave me alone with Cadi.

Yes, my Sultan.

He couldn't sell any of it.
How is he going to pay me back?

-He will pay you back, somehow.
-How?

Look, I got into this because I
trusted you. If he can't pay it, I will...

Hello, mother.

Here you go, mother.

-My child, thank you.
-Thank you, mother.

Are you in any sort of trouble?

My dear, what sort of trouble
would I be in?

I already have one foot in my grave,
anyway.

But the little kids...

Little kids?

I'll put these inside.

Wait, I'll be back.

Come with me.

Cadi Efendi,

here's the reason I summoned you.

You know that the English and the French
are drooling over the Arabian cities.

There are conspiracies
and trickery everywhere.

Because of this, I arranged a meeting

with the three most important sheikhs
in the Arabian Peninsula.

Sheikh Hamza, Abu Felat, Yahya El Said.

Unfortunately, they killed
the heirloom Hamza.

May God rest their soul.

I'm aware, my Sultan.
We have already started the investigation.

What are the initial results?

As a result of the first investigation,

we've reached the conclusion that
we are facing only one assassin

that killed our five beloved guards.

Cadi Efendi,

if it was only a killer we're facing,
then it would be fine.

We're facing an international conspiracy.

Sheikh Hamza was
one of our loyal servants.

He was a wise and highly respected
individual.

After all, our loss is big.

I'm afraid that the Arabian tribes will
have a fall out with each other.

-Pity.
-Cadi Efendi,

we have to protect the Sheikh of Yemen,
Yahya El Said

who is coming to Istanbul tonight.
I'm giving you the job of protecting him.

Yes, my Sultan.

Mecca and Medina are our holy lands.

We'll not lose them as long as
God keeps granting us life.

If God allows, we'll never allow this,
my Sultan.

Abu Felat will become
the most powerful man

in Arabian Peninsula after this murder.

He came to Istanbul two days ago.

Let's watch him as well.

As my Padishah commands.

They asked the injured eagle.
"Why are you so sad?"

It said: "My brother's feathers
are attached to the arrow that hit me."

Our brothers are cooperating with infidels
and digging a pit for Muslims.

That's why we can't establish peace.

Godspeed.

Amen.

ENGLISH EMBASSY

His Highness Abu Felat Efendi, welcome.

What brings you all the way here?

I came to Istanbul on our Padishah's
request.

Who is it that brings English spies
to our land, Sir Henry?

It's a cause of war to send spies
to Ottoman soil.

The English would not do that.

What about the diggings
you're carrying out at the desert, then?

There is a saying at the desert,
Sir Henry. "A secret is your slave

only so long as it's kept secret.
When it comes to light,

it becomes your master."

Abu Felat Efendi, you've recently
benefited a lot from Britain's generosity.

If the Padishah hears this...

No. Don't worry about it.

No one will hear about it.

Sir Henry, why threaten each other

when we can build a future together?

I'm listening.

Did anyone in the port
or any of the porters see the incident?

Field Marshall Efendi, I've been
at this port for years,

but this is the first time that
I have seen such an incident.

How strange, right, Hamdi Efendi?

A lot of incidents go down
at the port nowadays.

What are you trying to say,
Officer Efendi?

Mecit!

You'll respect the officer,
not glower at him.

That's our way.

I beg your pardon, Field Marshall Efendi.

This incident is frightfully
distressing to us.

I understand.

Maybe you're losing power in the port.

Whatever. Let us know
if you see or hear anything.

Thank you.

Let's go.

Leave now.

You didn't really like
the murdered Sheikh Hamza, right?

That's not a secret.

No one could touch Sheikh Hamza
on his lands,

but in Istanbul, he was unprotected.

That was a big mistake.

Let's be frank. What do you want?

Our Padishah summoned three sheikhs
to Istanbul.

Sheikh Hamza, myself, and Yahya El Said.

He'll ask us to obey him.

Sheikh Hamza has been killed,
but what if Yahya El Said obeys?

A powerful Ottoman in Arabian Peninsula.

That wouldn't work for you, right?

But what if only one sheikh
makes it back from Istanbul?

Then I can unite all the tribes
in the Arabian Peninsula.

And with our support, you can be
the emperor of the Arabian countries.

What about Yahya El Said?

Leave that to me, Sir Henry.

Just tell me what you need.

I need only one thing.

Where did we come?

Should we go in?

Who brought these children here?

Oh my God. What is this?

My dear.

What happened to these children?

These children are hungry.
They don't have anything to wear.

They will end up with the bad lot soon.

It can't be.

We shouldn't let this happen.

My beautiful children.

-We have to find a solution.
-How can we?

Don't worry, mother. We'll find a way.

My dear.

We'll come back.

Don't worry, guys.

Tell me, Cemil.

Well,

Mademoiselle Lara...

What happened to her?

Giyaseddin, the Cadi of Galata,

gave her a room at his place.

So?

He asked her to do the foundation work
from there.

Keep going, Mahmut.

Ceyrek, come on.

Come on. Sit down.

Wonderful.

Double heads, huh?

-Welcome.
-Thank you.

I hope you are well.

Yes.

What's that?
What are you making with this?

It was Filinta's idea. A very clever one.

We can use it to take
the criminals' measurements.

Head measurements, ear measurements.
Then we'll take their photo.

Well done, sir. You're on your way
to cleaning up all of Galata.

I hope so, Hasan.

Yes, hopefully. But, Abdullah,
what about your store?

I can't give up my store.
All of my inventions are there.

I'll be working here and there.

-Hopefully.
-Thank you.

Hopefully.

Don't touch that.

HIGH PORTE

God grant me patience.

Minister Efendi.

You have met our Sultan.

He needs us to get to
the bottom of the murders

that took place at the port
with the utmost haste.

Is there anything else?

If there is something else,
you must first consult the Sultan.

The orders must come from him.

What is the latest information
regarding the port incident?

The investigation is ongoing.

The Sultan knows that his meeting with
the Arabian sheikhs

is extremely important.
Which is why we kept it a secret.

As you know, there are many moles
in the army.

We hope to rid our troops of them,
however.

I want you to mobilize
all of your forces for this.

Except for Mustafa.
He will not be involved.

I don't need a condemned officer around.

Minister Efendi, the Sultan
pardoned Mustafa for a year.

Allow me to remind you that.

Mustafa is my best Field Marshall.

He'll be of great help to us
as we solve this case.

Cadi Efendi

I'm the Minister of Internal Affairs.

Your insubordinate attitude
towards my orders aside

you should know that
if you are unable to solve this case

I will not be responsible
for what happens.

Yakup.

-Murat Efendi.
-Have a seat.

-How is your boss?
-He is well.

He wanted me to deliver some news to you.

Yes? What is it?

We are very interested
in the bank you're setting up.

We would like to be partners.

And how would that benefit me,
my dear Yakup?

For starters, you would be partners
with the richest family in all of Europe.

What else?

Can I be honest with you?

It is common knowledge that my bosses

dethrone kings and replace them
with kings of their own choosing.

If you join us, you'll be part of a power
that rules not only the Ottoman Empire

but the entire world.

Now that is what I like to hear.

Money is important

but power is everything.

One more thing.

Boris Zaharyas.

That little scumbag. What about him?

He sent word to my boss
expressing interest in a partnership.

Forget about him.
He's just a small fish in a big sea.

Small fish grow bigger and stronger
by eating even smaller fish, Murat Efendi.

Who we are going to work with
is important, until we reach our goal.

Otherwise, we will have to consider
other options to achieve our goal.

Lara?

-What's going on? Is there a problem?
-No.

Good day.

Have you two met before?

From now on, young lady Lara Zaharyas
will be working with us.

What do you mean?

As you know, her foundation
helps Galata's poor.

Moving forward, she'll help us identify
the most vulnerable members

of our society and we'll help them
as much as we can.

-It that so?
-It is.

Thanks to Cadi Efendi,
who has set a room aside for us.

Cadi Efendi, we'd like to ask
for your help on a matter.

After you.

Step into my office and we will talk.

I am listening.

Cadi Efendi, there are children in Galata

who are homeless, hungry,
and freezing to death.

I know what you're thinking.

How will we clothe these children?
How will we feed them?

But I have an idea.

Two or three officers would be enough.

Hasan, Zeyrek, Ceyrek, come here.

You'll accompany Miss Lara
to Galata today.

You are to do as she says.

Yes, Cadi Efendi.

-Safe travels.
-Thank you, Cadi Efendi.

You have enough supplies, right?

We wouldn't compromise
your children's livelihood.

Son, I've made some extra just in case.
Here you go.

Bless you.

Thank you.

Isn't it lovely? Ottoman families
that make ends meet

cooking extra food in case guests arrive.

And, today, the children are
those guests, Hasan Efendi.

Listen here, this pot
belongs to this house.

You are to leave it here when you are
on your way back, understood?

Yes, sir.

Oh my God!
Well? Come on, then!

Look.

Padishah Efendi wants us
to get to the bottom of

the Sheikh Hamza situation
as soon as possible.

He also wants us to protect
the Sheikh of Yemen

who will be arriving to Istanbul tonight.

Sheikh Hamza's death will alter
the balance of

-the entire Arabian Peninsula.
-You're right, son.

God forbid the Sheikh of Yemen
gets killed as well

we'd lose even more power
in the Arabian Peninsula.

The English and French have their eyes
on the land as well.

We can't forget that.

Colonists always bleed
their colonies dry, my son.

These damned people seem to have a plan,
that's for sure.

We'll find out soon enough.

Bless you, sir

for gathering all of these children here
during this cold weather.

I can relax now.

Of course, Officer Efendi.
Though your thanks should go to Lara.

It was her idea. The boiler is on anyhow.
The children should warm up soon.

I wish I could do more
or that the state would help them.

Yes, but we shouldn't expect everything
to come from the state.

We can only do our best
and leave the rest up to God.

I'm going to go to the market
and speak with some of the shopkeepers.

Hopefully we'll be able to give
some of them jobs.

Hopefully.

Zeyrek.

You spent all your money
for these children again, didn't you?

Let the poor kids eat.

Did you take one?

Go ahead, take one. Keep your share well.

-Zeyrek.
-Yes?

I'll pay the rent for this once.

What did you think? Of course you will.

These two

are very naive but with hearts of gold.

He's a sweet boy.

I'm going to be an officer
when I grow up, too.

Will you? That's great.

Why, though? Do you like the uniforms?

No. To catch the veiled murderer.

The veiled murderer?

What do you know about Sheikh Hamza?

Sheikh Hamza.

He's the head of the Arabian Peninsula
and the Arabian Tribes

-and he sits under our Padishah.
-He used to sit under him.

-He was killed yesterday in Galata Port.
-He was killed?

What was he doing here?

He was here for a meeting
with our Padishah.

So you're saying that there will be
unrest in the Arabian cities.

Who will benefit the most
from this situation?

Nesatis.

It's not a secret that Nesatis
has wanted to take over

the Arabian Peninsula for many years.

Nesatis' leader is Abu Felat.

I understand.

Thank you.

Sir, this boy says that he saw
the incident last night at the port.

Is that so?

Go on, little one.

Tell me what you saw.

He had a veil on his face
and only his eyes were visible.

His knife was crescent shaped.

What was he wearing?

A blue garment. A kind that
I've never seen before.

-I understand.
-It was frightening.

He killed those men one by one.

Don't be afraid. You acted bravely.

Good boy.

Take good care of our little officer.

Come along, young one.

We've got to investigate Nesati.

-Hasan.
-Sir.

Go to the Galata Port and see
if there were any other witnesses.

Yes, sir.

Who? And why?

A veiled man in blue garb.

Known Nesati clothing.

I think I'll pay a visit to Abu Felat.

-Take care.
-Godspeed, Pasha.

Yes, Cemil.

Miss Lara is back in the house,
Boris Efendi.

Good. Tell her to wait for me
in the sitting room.

-Yes, sir.
-What is Banker Murat doing today?

He's at the Orient Club.
Today's a game day.

Good. We'll teach him how to play a game.

Well done, my little girl.

-Father?
-Excuse me.

-How is the foundation work going?
-Very well.

-Did you know that I met Cadi Giyaseddin?
-Yes, I know.

He has also set aside a room for you
at the Cadi Ministry of Galata

so that you can do
foundation work from there.

So you know!

Your father knows things
from time to time.

Even when his daughter
has not asked for his permission.

But I...

You've done well. I'm proud of you.

Cadi Giyaseddin is an important man,
and it would make me happy

to see you work
in the Cadi Ministry of Galata.

In fact, I told Cemil that we're donating
100 gold coins to your foundation.

My dear, generous-hearted father!
Thank you!

The coach is ready, Boris Efendi.

Right on time! Well done, Cemil. Bravo!

-Sir.
-What's going on?

-Are all of the officers here?
-We're protecting Abu Felat.

There is another squad of soldiers
out back.

Thank you.

Who is it?

Field Marshall Mustafa
from the Galata Police.

Come in.

Abu Felat Efendi.

I'm investigating a case. As you know

Sheikh Hamza of the Zemanis
has been killed.

Yes, I heard. What a loss!

Sheikh Hamza was our leader.
He was a wise man.

So he was destined to die here.

It is God's will.

I heard that you weren't
on the best of terms with him.

Where did you hear that from?
Don't trust everything you hear.

Right.

Your power in the Arabian Peninsula
has grown considerably

now that Sheikh Hamza is dead.
Isn't that so?

I was already powerful.

Our Padishah ordered us to come,
so we came.

-I trust that you will protect us.
-Don't worry.

We're going after the traitors.

-Can I have a look?
-Go ahead.

What a beautiful Cembiye.

Not many people around here know
that this is called a Cembiye.

Weighs about two dirhems, no?

It just so happens that Sheikh Hamza
was also killed with a dagger.

I didn't say a word despite what
you implied since you walked in here.

But don't go too far, Field Marshall.

Of course not. We're just doing our job.

Don't get upset.

Have a good day.

This Field Marshall Mustafa
is very dangerous

but everything will still go on
as planned.

-Murat Efendi.
-Boris.

What brings you here?
I didn't know you gambled.

I don't. I prefer to create my own luck

but if you don't mind,
tonight I'll make an exception.

Of course. Would you like to have a seat?

Gentlemen.

They say that gambling is the passion
of men who love themselves.

I couldn't agree more. But gambling

is no longer gambling
if one wins all the time.

Mother.

I never knew you, but even still,
I miss you a lot.

If you can hear me...

I met a man.

He's very handsome.

And he has a warm heart.

I...

I think I've fallen in love with him.

Every time I look at him,
a fire starts to burn in my heart.

I feel flustered whenever I see him.

It's like my heart is
beating out of my chest.

I want to shout my love
to all of Istanbul, mother.

I wish...

I wish you were alive

so that you could meet him.

My dear mother.

Card.

So you win all the time.

I believe in math.

Isn't life a matter of finances anyway?

I'll take two cards.

When you truly follow the game

you may incur losses
but you never lose the game.

Card.

Card?

Just because you follow the game

doesn't mean that you'll win
every single time.

In my humble opinion,
I think you're wrong.

Pass.

Raise.

300.

Pass.

There's only two of us left.

Correct.

Aren't you risking your good luck
by not looking at your cards?

I know that I'll win regardless of
whom I'm facing.

It is a pleasure for me to knock down
such overconfidence.

All in.

I thought we'd win this game together.

People who want to win together
shouldn't be doing things behind my back.

I'm happy that you topped my "all in."

I got to where I am today
by topping the "all ins"

of people who didn't take me
or my power seriously.

It's not only enough to top an "all in."
You must also win the hand.

All kings.

I'm getting the impression that
you've won this hand, Murat Efendi.

Only aces beat kings.

But I'll win the game.

All aces. Lucky bastard.

Come in.

What happened? Were you able to speak
with Abu Felat?

I was.

I feel like he's involved in this.
If the Sheikh of Yemen Yahya El Said dies

this damned fool will be
the sole owner of the Arabian Peninsula.

That's his only intention.

What are we going to do?

We'll play a good trick on him together.

I have an idea.

My God!

How did you get in here?

This is the information detailing
when and through which gate

Yahya El Said, the Sheikh of Yemen,
will enter Istanbul.

Tell Abu Felat that we worked very hard
to obtain this information.

We spent a lot of money.

What are you doing?

Are you mad? What are you doing?

These people are savages indeed.

Welcome.

-We've been waiting for you.
-Let's have a little chat.

Desert eagle.

Surrender.

I need you alive.

Mustafa!

-The scumbag got away.
-Do not worry, my son.

We have saved Yahya El Said thanks to you.

Just as I suspected.
They know the sheikh's route.

We met him before he arrived in Istanbul.

While disguised, we swapped the coaches.

To ensure the sheikh's safety.

Then we replaced the sheikh
and lay in wait for the assassin.

Here we go. In the name of God.

Giddy up!

I'm going to protect the sheikh, sir.

Zeyrek, Ceyrek, come with me.

-Excuse me, sir.
-You are excused.

My lion.

Yahya El Said got away.

He did?

Abu Felat's men turned out to be
a bunch of good-for-nothings.

We tried so hard to get that information
to the English Embassy.

-Where's he gone, then?
-We've looked everywhere.

He's not at the barracks.
We'd know if he were there.

Interesting.

The Galata Police suspect something.

I'm sure Giyaseddin and Mustafa
have taken him somewhere very secure.

A place that only they know of.

I think you should follow them.

Find out where they've hidden him.

Go to Abu Felat afterwards.
He'll take care of this.

After all, they're the ones who don't
want El Said to join the meeting.

We'll continue on with
whomever is left standing.

That's why no one should know the role
that we've played in this incident.

Go to the English Ambassador as well.

This will be the last favor
we do for them.

If you want to be powerful, Felat

you'll have to pay the price.

Yahya Efendi, don't worry.
You're safe here.

Sheikh Hamza died. If I die, too

Abu Felat will take over
the entire Arabian Peninsula.

Sheikh Efendi, don't worry.
We'll protect you.

God bless you.

-Can he do it?
-He can't!

Come on!

Well done!

Here we go gentleman. The bets are on.
Can he do it or not?

He can!

He can't lift that much, Chief.

Trust your friend.

No, don't drop it!

I won the bet, brother.

Keep your hands off.

-Are we not brothers, Azat?
-Money

and brotherhood
are very different, Garbis.

Here, take your share.

I won, too.

But brothers share, right?

Anyway, that is not the issue here.
We're going.

Where?

Send word to all of our men in Istanbul.

We need know wherever Mustafa goes.

What are we looking for?

Sheikh Yahya El Said.

Come on.

Come in.

-Greetings, Abu Felat.
-Greetings.

I see you're well protected.

Thanks to our Padishah Efendi.

They've increased the number of guards
since Sheikh Hamza was killed.

So, what brings you're here
this time of night?

I've got some news for you.

What happened? Is it bad news?

It depends on what you think of the news.

They tried to kill
Sheikh Yahya El Said tonight.

-Is he...
-No.

The sheikh was saved.

Who are these people?
What do they want from us?

You'd would know better than I.

This is Nesati's symbol. The desert eagle.

They say it gives courage to warriors.

I grabbed it with my own hands

from the neck of the man
who tried to kill the sheikh.

Do you know the desert, Cadi Efendi?
It is infinite nothingness.

You can never own nothingness.

If you're behind this, one way or another

I will bring it to light,
just so you know.

For us, nothingness is not an end
but rather a beginning, Abu Felat.

The matter is not to own nothingness

the matter is to be nothingness.

What are you trying to say, Cadi Efendi?

Nothing.

Sheikh Efendi, it is exactly as
we predicted. We have been attacked.

-And the attacker?
-He got away.

So what are we going to do now?

Your men will keep watch with my men.

Don't worry. We will get you
to that meeting safe and sound.

Hasan, Zeyrek, and Ceyrek,
check the streets.

They cannot get past us.
Understood?

Yes, Chief. Understood.

Pasha, what should I do?

Stay with Sheikh Efendi.

Don't worry. If they are looking for
trouble, they will regret it.

Let's go!

You fool.

When will we get this opportunity again?

You are useless. It is because of you
that all our plans are ruined.

Ceyrek.

Zeyrek.

It's almost morning.

Yes.

These men are huge.

We shouldn't leave our posts.

Right, right. We definitely shouldn't.

Yes, yes.

They are hiding at Abdullah's place.

You are going to finish what you started.
This time, no mistakes.

You are good at guarding the Sheikh.
He is our benefactor.

Yes, Chief.

Good job.

Mustafa, let's see
what you're going to do now.

You are spoiling me, Pasha.

You are worth even more.

This is very valuable.

Where did you find the money
for something like this?

From an Arab sheikh
who was worth quite a bit of money.

Some information is very important,
my Azize.

You will have even better gifts
when I become the Grand Vizier.

Hopefully we will see those days.

Once I become The Grand Vizier,
no one will stand in our way.

But I must warn you,
quite a few men...

...have tried and
failed to get rid of Boris.

This country has yet to meet Esat Pasha.

Can you be the devil?

Excuse me?

In order to beat the devil
you must first become one.

If you are not able to do that,
then you should forget these dreams.

We are all Boris' pawns.

If you don't get used to that,
you will disappear.

You need to be acquainted with
strong people.

Life is better that way.

Did you hear that?

-We didn't hear anything, Chief.
-We didn't, Chief.

Go and let the chief know.

Hurry, hurry!

Tonight,
there is no way out of here for you.

-Zeyrek, we can't leave Chief Hasan.
-You're right.

Come on.

Take care of Hasan!

-Chief.
-Chief.

-Chief.
-Chief.

I'm here. I'm here.
He wasn't able to get past us, was he?

No, he wasn't.

-He wasn't, Chief.
-He wasn't.

Good. Good.

Do you need help, General?

I can take care of this, Hamdi Efendi.

Thank you.

Who are you to play games
with the Ottomans?

What a mother wouldn't do...

DOLMABAHCE PALACE

Sheikh Abu Felat.

I assume that
we'll be having this meeting alone.

However you prefer, your highness.

Sheikh Efendi,
the essence of the matter is that...

...I would like to request your help.

Help?

Regarding how I should proceed
with an issue.

The problem is that there is a traitor.

The Ottoman Empire,
has always treated him justly...

...and shown his family respect
for centuries.

But this man now attempts to set a trap
against the Ottoman Empire.

If you were in my place, what would you do
to this man Sheikh Efendi?

Cadi Efendi!

My Sultan.

Wouldn't you make him suffer
for the rest of his life?

But... my Sultan.

Our holy grounds, Makkah and Madina,
were entrusted to you.

How could you betray the Ottoman Empire!
Do you not know that the people...

...of this country would kill you slowly.

The man we caught yesterday
told us everything.

Abu Felat there are no exits for you
from this city any longer.

-My Sultan, I did it but...
-Silence!

My Sultan.
My Sultan.

My Sultan.

The case is yours, Cadi Efendi.

I am sure that you will do
what is necessary.

As you wish, my Sultan.

Good.

Sheikh Abu Felat, you are on trial
for treason.

Sheikh Hamza and five of his men
are also on trial...

...for treason against the Ottoman Empire.

We have listened to the witnesses...

...investigated the crime scene,
examined the evidence...

...and reached a verdict.

Sheikh Abu Felat,
You have been found guilty of murder...

...and treason.

The witnesses have found you guilty.

Is there anything you would like to say
before we disclose your sentence?

I regret everything and place myself
at the mercy of the court.

The sentence.

Sheikh Abu Felat...

...from the beginning of this trial,
the ten murders that you ordered...

...your guard to commit have been
proven with both evidence...

...and witnesses.

You have caused great unrest amongst

Arab provinces that
had been living in peace.

Benefitting from this disturbance...

...you have collaborated with outsiders.

In the eyes of Muslims
as well as this great empire...

...you have caused conflict
through your use of material...

...and immaterial support
from outside forces.

Your actions have betrayed
not only Muslims...

...but the entire Ottoman Empire.

Because you have shown yourself
capable of great harm...

...we do not believe that
you will do right...

...by the people you look after,
the land you care for...

...or even the future of the
Islamic world.

Because you are capable of such harm,
and because you have committed...

...these crimes willingly...

...I sentence you to death.

Silence!

Our Padishah Efendi
has the final say in the execution...

...of your sentence.

This court is adjourned.

You may take him away, Officers.

What is the news from the palace?

They do not know of our plans,
Boris Efendi.

Good.

They think Abu Felat is trying
to take over the Arabian Peninsula.

The Ottomans must be taken seriously.
They are very dangerous.

See how Mustafa and Cadi Giyaseddin
spoiled the game for the British?

And Banker Murat?

I don't have great news
regarding that situation, Boris Efendi.

For now.

Enter!

Murat Efendi, would like to see you,
my Sultan.

Send him in.

My Sultan.

Murat Efendi,
how are plans with the bank?

Everything is going according to plan,
my Sultan.

As you know, our country's profit rate is
fairly low...

...which is why we have to ask
our associates for the funds.

We have arrived at this stage
by choosing...

...only the most reliable of associates.

Good. Good. Murat Efendi,
let's get this all resolved.

If you'll excuse me, my Padishah.

You may be excused.

Azize.

Right?

From what I've heard,
you know a great deal about poisons.

Do you know what poison hemlock is?
